This thing they're doing now where they start each episode with a bunch of spoiler clips is really pissing me off.
Are they actually stronger than him now though?
He said that he's the only Espada with a second release, and even Aizen hasn't seen it.
So how would they know where to place him with it?
So maybe Ulquiorra actually IS stronger than 1-3 with his second release.
So maybe Ichigo was right all along. Maybe he just has to defeat Ulquiorra to win.
